    Default Working away from home.....

    Right everyone quick question for you.

    So who on here grows the beautiful herb but works away from home?

    Just intrested to see if any one is in the same situation as me....

    I work for 2 weeks away from home,then I travel back home for a Friday, Saturday, Sunday of. Then I'm back away again.

    So my question is who's the same ?
    What system do you use ?
    Is your setup fully automatic?
    Does your loved ones or friends and family help while your away?

    Looking for ideas and some help really.

    I've been given the green light to start growing again. But now my job involves being away from home for 2 weeks at a time.

    Last time I use to grow was 5 years ago, I was single,had no children, and was working at home.

    But now.... I've a partner who's a school teacher and not very keen on me growing cannabis in the house. I've a beautiful 2 year old boy, and a job the requires me to work away from home.

    After 5 years of chewing my partners ears of about starting another grow, I've finally had a break through!! But there's a catch I can't grow in the house. Which I can understand due to her job and my son.

    So I'm allowed to build a nice shed at the back of the garden so it's out of site and her mind.


    So yeah would love to here if people are in the same situation as me and if any one has any idea's to help me work something out.

    Peace out people and happy growing

    Regards Rich

    Hmm caught between a rock and a hard place .

    2 weeks is a long time tbh . If it were 1 week i would tell ya go DWC ( deep water culture) but you would need one hell of a good size reservoir even come flower 20 gallons min about for 2 plants , all depending that is .
    That or soil but as i said 2 weeks is waaay long even for that .

    Auto pots would be your best bet IMO. Then you could leave a top up feed in a bucket so someone can keep on top of the level for you while you're away.
